Formerly incarcerated persons have higher health risks than the general population

In 2012, Michael Cruz exercised a lot. Four years into a 15-year prison sentence, this was one of the only things he had, he says, until he noticed a numb, tingling sensation in one of his toes while working out.

Study paves the way for some patients with testicular cancer to avoid chemotherapy and radiation

A newly published study paves the way for some patients with testicular cancer to avoid chemotherapy and radiation.

Diverse subset of T-cell clones plays a role in the antitumor effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are widely sought after for the treatment of different types of cancers. Unfortunately, only 20–30% patients with cancer respond to ICI treatment.

Drugs to activate STING could help prevent cancer metastasis

A team of scientists at the Sloan Kettering Institute have identified the STING cellular signaling pathway as a key player in keeping dormant cancer cells from progressing into aggressive tumors months, or even years, after they've escaped from a primary tumor.

Scientists identify a distinct role of retinoic acid during immune response of the gut

A team of scientists from the Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University have identified a distinct role of retinoic acid, a metabolite of vitamin A, during the immune response of the gut.

Novel subset of memory B cells predicts long-lived antibody responses to influenza vaccination

Memory B cells play a critical role to provide long-term immunity after a vaccination or infection. In a study published in the journal Immunity, researchers describe a distinct and novel subset of memory B cells that predict long-lived antibody responses to influenza vaccination in humans.

Leaving lymph nodes intact until after immunotherapy could boost efficacy against solid tumors

Cancer treatment routinely involves taking out lymph nodes near the tumor in case they contain metastatic cancer cells.

Ipsilateral vaccination improves response to second dose of COVID-19 vaccine

Researchers examine whether the involvement of the ipsilateral or contralateral lymph nodes affected the immune response during sequential vaccination.

Host immune system forms small lesions in the intestines in response to bacterial infection

Yersinia bacteria cause a variety of human and animal diseases, the most notorious being the plague, caused by Yersinia pestis.

Bispecific antibody shows improved efficacy against SARS-CoV-2 variants

Researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have developed fully human bispecific antibodies, as revealed in a recent study. These antibodies can bind to two distinct epitopes of the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and have demonstrated the ability to neutralize various strains of the virus, including the Omicron variant.

Small change to keyhole surgery for prostate cancer can reduce post-operative complications

Surgeons in Germany have shown a small technical change to keyhole surgery for prostate cancer can more than halve one of the most common post-operative complications – where lymphatic fluid collects in the pelvis.

Healthy gut bacteria can travel to other parts of the body and boost antitumor immunity

Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have discovered how healthy bacteria can escape the intestine, travel to lymph nodes and cancerous tumors elsewhere in the body, and boost the effectiveness of certain immunotherapy drugs.

Estimation of incubation period and serial interval of mpox virus infections in the United States

In a recent study, researchers determined the mean incubation period and the serial interval estimates of the mpox virus.

Naked mRNA delivered using needle-free PYRO injection presents a safe and effective potential vaccination method

Researchers examined the vaccination effects and local antigen expression efficiency of a needle-free vaccination technique involving pyro-drive liquid jet injection (PYRO) to deliver the naked messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) to the skin.

Multi-organ scRNA-seq reveals targeting pro- or anti-inflammatory regulators may be exploited for personalized treatment of immune diseases

Researchers performed multi-organ single-cell RNA sequencing of collagen-induced arthritis murine model to evaluate immune-mediated inflammatory disease alterations by characterizing the genome, organizing the organome, and prioritizing pathways in the multi-organ data.
